中国华文教育政策的沿革

The Policy Evolution of the Overseas Chinese Language and Culture Education

中国政府从清末开始关注海外华文教育,并开创了国内侨生教育的先河。此后,政府方面一直关注华文教育并出台了相应的政策措施。本文梳理了晚清至今出台的华文教育政策和措施,根据不同阶段华文教育的发展特点进行了分期,分析了政策发布的历史背景、国内外形势以及政策特点。

Chinese language education among overseas Chinese plays a vital role in learning language and culture of their motherland and carrying on the ethnic heritage.During the Qing dynasty,the Chinese language education started to draw offi cial attention,and this resulted in the subject of teaching Chinese to the descendants of Chinese immigrants living in other countries.Since then on,subsequent Chinese governments have attached a lot of importance to overseas Chinese education,and showed keen concern through bringing out relevant policies and measures.This article attempts to review the policies and measures concerning overseas Chinese education implemented by Chinese governments since the late Qing period,and the developing stages corresponding to the features of respective historical period were distinguished.The historical background,domestic and international contexts under which the policies were enacted were also discursively analyzed.It is my hope that what I summarized in this article can serve as a reference in future policy making.
